Aztec Ace #6 - Nestor Redondo art & cover


Aztec Ace #6, 1984 - This time traveling series uses plenty of historical images, and it was a pleasant surprise to see an opening splash based on the ancient Greek statue, The Laocoön. Penciller Dan Day's layouts are a tad less chaotic than previous issues, but no less interesting. As usual, Nestor Redondo's inks are terrific enhancements throughout, but the two page spread on pages 18 and 19 shows him at his best. This is number 6 of 8 Aztec Ace issues with Redondo art and/or covers. See today's posts or more Redondo or Aztec Ace issues. See also this blog's Redondo checklist or Top 10 Redondo comics.
